All you Need to Know about World Teachers’ Day

About World Teachers Day

Did you know the whole world celebrates Teachers Day on 5th October each year?

It is held annually since 1994 as a celebration of the role of teachers in society and with the aim to mobilize support to teachers, to ensure that the future needs of our kids and their generation will be met. There is a theme for each year’s celebrations and for 2016 its “Valuing Teachers, Improving their Status.” There will be a global World Teachers Day held in Paris on Wednesday to mark the 50th anniversary of the 1966 UNESCO recommendation concerning the status of Teachers. UNESCO dedicated this day to celebrating a unique intergovernmental commitment and reaffirming its commitment to the value of the profession.

How to Celebrate World Teachers Day

Even though World Teachers Day might not be widely celebrated in the UK, you can always lead by an example and surprise the favorite teacher of your kids with something small to express your gratitude. There might be small events held at local schools and communities, which you can take part in, or do you own personal deed by sending a small gift or flowers to the teacher. Not only they don’t get much appreciation these days, but there is certainly a lack of support for their profession. Make their voices heard by celebrating their profession not just the one day in a year but throughout the whole year.
